Just want to give a thank you shout out to the awesome Molino Emergency crews! I observed one of the fireman as he pulled over and stopped when he saw a flagpole had been snapped and the American flag was lying in the grass. He respectively unclipped the flag and placed it on the residents porch before continuing on his way. Thank you !,

I have (had) a beautiful sweet gum tree in the back yard -as the wind howled it seemed as though there was a whirl wind in that tree and huge branches kept snapping off- it scared me to death !!!! it is a mess – but the blessing of no damage to my home or self!!!

The power line that exploded a few times happened around 8:30pm. I am pretty certain it was from the storm earlier.

I drove under the power lines that exploded overMolino rd. Right before Scott’s pharmacy. It was the craziest thing I had ever seen. It was pretty frightening.

God is good! We had an amazing number of children for VBS this evening, start time was minutes after the storm passed! Thanks to all those who cleaned up and got folks power back on so we could return home safely. Lights went off very briefly at the church then stayed on through all of VBS!

Power line was also down across Schaag Road. My wife couldn’t cross it going north so had to go the back way around near Highland Baptist. The neighbor across the street from us said there was a high amount of pressure when she tried to go out of her garage to bring things in as the storm rolled in. There are half a dozen or more trees down in the general area of Schaag and Rolling Oaks. My neighbor beside me and my neighbor behind me both lost medium to large trees.

Nobody realizes the consequences of a downed tree until it’s too late.
